    PLX Devices and Pod

    Im thinkin about gettin a PLX Gauge for xmas and a pod. Ive got 2 questions, well actually 3 lol.

    1. Which gauge setup do I need to get? Just the DM-100 that plugs into the ODBII? or would I need to get the SM-AFR/DM-100 Combo?

    2. Im wanting that guage pod that fits directly into that slot in the dash where the passenger airbag activates, but I have an 06 so I have that empty slot that needs to be used. Do yall know where to get the pod or insert? 52mm or 60? Cause I want to get the 60mm Gauge

    3. Cheapest place to buy em? I guess PLX's website..

    Depends on what you're wanting to monitor.
    I'd get the DM200 with the a/f module, this allows you to add to the gauge later, egt, boost, etc, and still only have one gauge, you add modules to the gauge each time you want to monitor something else.
    Get the dm a/f r combo if you just want the a/f ratio monitored, it's not exapandalbe, it's just on function like the others.
    or, i just install the obdII gauge, it's cool, and i can add modules to it.

    any of the gauges are good, just depends on how far you want to expand them.

    I mainly just wanna monitor a/f, trans temp, fuel pressure, etc. Just the normal engine stuff, Im not going to add boost for a while. Can the odbII gauge do all that or does it have to have the 02 sensor to monitor a/f? as well?

    Yeah I just looked in the manual and it has the ability to monitor these sensors:
    1. 1) ABS THROTTLE (Absolute Throttle Position)
    2. 2) ENGINE RPM
    3. 3) VEHICLE SPEED
    4. 4) ENGINE LOAD
    5. 5) TIMING
    6. 6) INTAKE MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure)
    7. 7) INTAKE MAF (Mass Air Flow Sensor)
    8. 8) STFUEL B1 (Short Term Fuel Trim Bank 1)
    9. 9) LTFUEL B1 (Long Term Fuel Trim Bank 1)
    10. 10) STFUEL B2 (Short Term Fuel Trim Bank 2)
    11. 11) LTFUEL B2 (Long Term Fuel Trim Bank 2)
    12. 12) AIR INT TEMP (Air Intake Temperature)
    13. 13) COOLANT TEMP
    1. 14) FUEL PRESSURE
    2. 15) O2VOLTAGE 1B1 (Narrowband O2 Sensor Voltage 1 Bank 1)
    3. 16) O2VOLTAGE 1B2 (Narrowband O2 Sensor Voltage 1 Bank 2)
    4. 17) O2VOLTAGE 2B1 (Narrowband O2 Sensor Voltage 2 Bank 1)
    5. 18) O2VOLTAGE 2B2 (Narrowband O2 Sensor Voltage 2 Bank 2)
    6. 19) FUEL LEVEL
    7. 20) CAT TEMP 1B1 (Catalytic Converter Temperature 1 Bank 1)
    8. 21) CAT TEMP 2B1 (Catalytic Converter Temperature 2 Bank 1)
    9. 22) CAT TEMP 1B2 (Catalytic Converter Temperature 1 Bank 2)
    10. 23) CAT TEMP 2B2 (Catalytic Converter Temperature 2 Bank 2)
    11. 24) ECU VOLTAGE
    12. 25) ABS ENG LOAD (Absolute Engine Load)
    13. 26) AMB AIR TEMP (Ambient Air Temperature) "AMB AIR TEMP");
    Can the DM OBDII monitor all these on my vehicle (obviously not cats cause of the delete)? So basically just add the A/F module and Im set right?

    you'll want this then,

    PLX Devices Inc. - DM-100 52mm Digital OLED Universal Gauge

    then add the a/f ratio module and whatever else you want to monitor.
